Hello.
Black Eyed White gerbils as usually a colourpoint ee gerbil - so a colourpoint Polar Fox or whatever - so yes - I would assume your gerbils was a colourpoint ee too.
That would mean that your gerbils dad (the agouti) must have carried a colourpoint gene - but more unusually - both parents carried an e gene?
What other colour pups were in the litter as this could help along with the pictures?
